I was sure it wasn't his name, but I hadn't seen anywhere what his real name was.

What is so unfortunate is that Christianity has been twisted and made into something it was never meant to be.
Someone who highlights money and prosperity is not mouthing Christianity. Unfortunately, there are numerous people like that who have no real idea what it's about, and they ruin it for the others. It has become loathed by many, and they are the reason.

I'd like to add for those who are unaware that the prosperity used as a centerpiece of some teachings is not necessarily financial, it has many meanings.........

That's all I'm going to argue about here.
I rest my case. Your above statement speaks the kind of gospel you have been listening too. That is why we need men like Creflo Dollar.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Are you saying that no one but Christians who believe in the 'correct gospel' will go to heaven? Is that what Creflo Dollar preaches? Do you (or Creflo) believe that non-Christians do not go to heaven? I'm not sure what you mean to say. Please explain.
Yes, that's what she believes. It is a literal interpretation of the NT.
Not all Christians believe that.
I know that not all Christians believe it, don't worry Noel ;-)
But I do suspect Taxy believes it. I just want to see her respond.
I'm sure she does. She is part of the problem because that belief teaches hate.

I don't agree with Taxy, but it would be better if the Forum stopped piling on posters. That is my sense of this thread.
She is either an invented persona playing with the forum or a person who just disagrees with many here (including me, as I posted above)
But either way, there is no purpose in a pile-on.

I don't understand why anyone would call material things "blessings from God" anyway. Material things are only temporary and mean nothing - or should mean nothing - we are supposed to lay up treasures "in Heaven," not here on earth; we are supposed to be humble, and live our lives in a way that is pleasing to the Lord.
There's something wrong with him if he things he needs a new jet. No preachers don't have to be dirt-poor, but why on earth would any sincere person who knows the Lord care about such luxuries?
No one needs that sort of life. I don't want it or need it.
As long as we have the Lord, we have EVERYTHING.
He is all that matters, in the end.....and so, people need to look into this prosperity stuff, because it's not true.
It's also not true that Christians never get sick; it IS true that the Lord paid for our healing and still heals people, but sometimes it doesn't manifest itself due to the wisdom of God and His timing.

I agree Taxy should be able to have her own beliefs...whether we agree or not.

There is good reason for a pile-on against beliefs that teach hate or are simply not a part of the gospel.
In fact, it's time more moderates speak out against that which is destroying Christianity.
That's what we all say about another religion often mentioned here.

Pile ons are toxic to the people who post them, not to their recipients.
Sometimes I think people here just like the taste of blood in their mouths.

Would you say that about those in that other religion?
